AFTERMARKET ELECTRICAL PROPULSION SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES

摘要

A supplemental propulsion system for a vehicle includes an electrical generator coupled to the vehicle's engine. At least one electric motor is coupled to one or more propulsion devices, such as road wheels of a motor vehicle. Electrical power from the generator is supplied to an electronic control unit that then supplies electric power to the electric motor. The system may be configured to be retrofitted to a conventional gasoline or diesel-powered vehicle.
